National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency

The National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) delivers world-class geospatial intelligence that provides a decisive advantage to policymakers, warfighters, intelligence professionals and first responders.

Anyone who sails a U.S. ship, flies a U.S. aircraft, makes national policy decisions, fights wars, locates targets, responds to natural disasters, or even navigates with a cellphone relies on NGA. Our Agency enables all of these critical actions and shapes decisions that impact our world through the indispensable discipline of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT). We enable the U.S. Intelligence Community (IC) and the Department of Defense (DOD) to fulfill national security priorities to protect the nation, and anticipate our partners’ future needs and advance the GEOINT discipline to meet them.
